Re: Road Rage causes death...
Sis. C...about 2 years ago a former co-worker was driving his truck down a busy street in this city.
A man in a car cut in front of him, which was not a thing to do. Brian was a cute kid, funny, and sweet, but he had a short fuse.
Brian and this dude began racing down the street, when suddenly the other guy, stopped at a red light, got out and ran back to the truck. He shouted something, and then kicked the truck.
He jumped out as the man ran back to his car. Suddenly the man put the car in reverse, and backed over Brian. He hit him so hard, when it was over he was laying on the car's rear window.
Brian was only 32 years old. His wife was a few car lengths ahead and saw it all. They had no children.
What a tragic loss, and for what?!
If we could talk with Brian today, would he say that having the last word was worth it?! Absolutely not!!
Yet in the heat of whatever it sure seemed so.
The other dude is in jail today for murder...does he wish he could go back and relive those moments of anger?! I'm sure he does...
But it is not to be. The chance to replay those angry moments is just not possible.
And so my friend is dead, his wife a young widow, and another young man in prison.
What a loss...
